The facts lay Like dried- up leaves on Bloodied the Earth From every man made war Law Has names But struggles To remember The one's they effect I envy lust Desire Agression Greed Trust and Self-confidence These are vices Of the regular man Yet I see no need For the big shindig The after party And all the dates before Did I dream this life? Was I brought here from sleep? If I ***** this skin, Will I sooner bleed or wake? To what land then will I be transported? Cobblestone configurations peddling Beneath me as oars of the past once did A father carries his son as far as He can Until He must forget Him, so then to begin Peace requires the blood of the worthy The obstacles of man, the chances that God gives Each structure needs its supports For without, the structure will be weak So son's and daughter's witness defeat

Pardon Distress
The facts lay Like dried- up leaves on Bloodied the Earth From every man made war Law Has names But struggles To remember The one's they effect I envy lust Desire Agression Greed Trust and Self-confidence These are vices Of the regular man Yet I see no need For the big shindig The after party And all the dates before Did I dream this life? Was I brought here from sleep? If I ***** this skin, Will I sooner bleed or wake? To what land then will I be transported? Cobblestone configurations peddling Beneath me as oars of the past once did A father carries his son as far as He can Until He must forget Him, so then to begin Peace requires the blood of the worthy The obstacles of man, the chances that God gives Each structure needs its supports For without, the structure will be weak So son's and daughter's witness defeat
